ENJOY THE INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

Modern smartphones are like items of jewelry, sleek, with gleaming materials and perfect to hold. However, most of us hide the extraordinary craftsmanship behind plastic cases. Why do we do this ? Well many of us have seen first hand what happens when a phone is dropped onto a hard surface or inadvertently sat on. Cracked and splintered screens are commonplace and these are very costly to fix.

In the past couple of years, smartphones have become much more structurally resilient and can put up with more abuse than previous generations. This is a direct result of exhaustive virtual-twin testing where no real devices are harmed. Being able to drop or bend a virtual device thousands of times from every angle has allowed designers to fashion the structure and the screen to withstand typical drop scenarios much more effectively. Similarly they have used virtual twins to improve water proofing, assembly processes and bending resistance. While we can’t recommend that you remove your case, you may be surprised by how resilient your new smartphone is.
